  • Title: Mutative interpretation and close process monitoring in a study of psychoanalytic process.
    Author: Davison WT, Pray M, Bristol C.
    Journal: Psychoanal Q; 1990 Oct; 59(4):599-628. PubMed ID: 2267272.
    Abstract:
    When James Strachey defined the mutative interpretation, he did not have defense interpretation in mind, but a few years later Anna Freud opened the door to new ways of making small-scale non-transference and transference interpretations that alter superego functions. Using her model and a special mode of listening, the authors suggest an updated technique of intervention with resultant superego change, which qualifies for consideration as a later version of the mutative interpretation.
